Reboot MacBook Pro 15 " early 2011

Hi guys
Probably a question that has been answered already thousands of times... Sorry
How do I reboot (completely reinstall my MacBook Pro, like it was when I bought it.
What are the things to pay attention to before I do this
How can I do it?
How much time does it take?
How difficult is it?
Many thanks!
Bob

In computer context, rebooting signifies having the preexisting operating system power up again. What you want is to reinstall the O.S. Yes, a frequent question. Since you're using Lion, I would start by getting a blank USB flash drive of 1GB or more and concocting a standalone Lion Recovery Disk. See here: http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1433 and here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4848. Also indispensable is a speedy Internet link or $70 bucks to blow, if you want to finish reasonably soon. The fullblown Lion installer weights in at around 4GB, give or take a few MB, and once you start the process, the Mac won't work again until you are done. The seventy bucks gets you Lion on a Stick, the official installer on a USB flash drive (so you won't need the other drive mentioned earlier): http://store.apple.com/us/product/MD256Z/A?fnode=MTY1NDAzOA. You decide which way to go.
With that dealt with, if you're going the El Cheapo route, stick your Recovery Disk in, restart and hold down the Option key before the chime. Pick the USB Recovery disk from the list, click on the arrow to boot there. Get past the languages screen, use Disk Utility to Erase the Macintosh HD volume, then quit to return to the picker window and select Install Mac OS X. When the installer starts and valdates your eligibility to a free Lion re-install, pick the Macintosh HD volume you just erased, let'er rip and go have fun elsewhere. Last time I did it at home with a 2Mbps link, took 7 hours to finish downloading. After concluding, it will reboot and the Mac will be running the Setup Assistant like when first turned on. **Note: if you don't want to go thru the LONG wait, stop the thing before it restarts and you'll be able to save the installer and construct your model-specific Lion on a Stick. See here: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3786371?tstart=0 Just note that once the thing restarts, the installer is gone.
If you're Daddy Warbucks and bought the Official Lion USB Installer, just stick it in, boot from there as explained above, and follow instructions.

  • Windows 8 on Macbook Pro (early 2011)

    Hi,
    I want to install Windows 8 on my macbook pro (early 2011) running the new Mavericks 10.9, but im stucked at the formating process when installing windows 8.
    So first I go into boot camp and partition my disk as it guides me to. When It has finished and rebooted I'll hold the alt-option to select the windows disc (efi-boot). When I choose the language, typed the activationcode and all that, it wants me to format the partition i made, and thats when I got stucked. When i try to format it, it says:
    "Windows cannot be installed to this disk. The selected disk has an MBR partition table. On EFI systems, windows can only be installed to GTP disks.
    Windows cannot be installed to this disk. This computer's hardware may not support booting to this disk. Ensure that the disk's controller is enabled in the computer's BIOS menu."
    I downloaded my windows from dreamsparks microsoft, and im pretty sure it is the full version (not the upgrade). The file size is 3.6GB. I don't know if that can tell which version of windows it is.
    I don't know what to do about this problem, I need help please!
    Thanks

    You showed a kernel panic file from OS X, apprantly Log Me In is installed into OS X or running when you log in.
    You should be using the developers installer/unistaller to remove Log Me In from OS X.
    Somehow it's in OS X, I don't know, but it's there and you need to remove it. I'm not dealing with Windows, just OS X.
    Talk to Log Me In people and find out what is installed where so you can do a manual deletion out of OS X.
    If that doesn't work, you have to reboot holding the Shift key down manually search for any Log Me In or Himachi files on your computer, in your System/Library/Extensions folder too, use the free Easy Find.

  • Yosemite macbook pro early 2011 camera light blinks

    I tried to find a similar question that I saw with a Google Search but couldn't find here... But I REALLY like the Yosemite upgrade... I have problems with FaceTime - sometimes I hang up and it continues to ring, and can not connect as reliably as I could in the past with Mavericks... Also, I have noticed that the light near my camera blinks from time to time... On another post, the guy/gal listed when he noticed it blinking... A bit scary as I wonder if when it is blinking it is secretly taking m picture and sending it to some remote location... I use Little Snitch so doubt that pictures are being exfiltrated without my knowledge, but you never know... But bottom line is that I LOVE the Yosemite upgrade!  Upgraded relatively smoothly on my MacBook Pro early 2011... upgraded a few of the apps (free upgrades) and after that, and a couple reboots to make sure the upgrades were in place - all is REAL GOOD... GOOD JOB Apple OS/X developers on Yosemite!!!

    Apple doesn’t routinely monitor the discussions. These are mostly user to user discussions.
    Send Apple feedback. They won't answer, but at least will know there is a problem. If enough people send feedback, it may get the problem solved sooner.

  • MacBook Pro (Early 2011) No Wifi Hardware Installed

    Please help me! I'm confused.
    My 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011) Keeps saying that No WIFI Hardware is installed.
    My Mac has been running great until earlier this week. I turned it off one night before bed and then the next morning as I switched it on, it said there was no WIFI hardware installed. I launched recover mode which is when I figured my WIFI works in recovery mode just not in the Mac itself. I reinstalled a fresh copy of OS X Yosemite which worked for a day, but sure thing the next day I loaded the Mac and then there was the same issue. So I reinstalled OS X Yosemite... AGAIN!! this time I hit an error, Yosemite had deleting my recovery drive and unmounted my Macintosh HD but thats anther story to fix another time. Once I finally repaired my disk to install Yosemite my WIFI was working again... until I restarted my Mac and it went off and the error reappeared. Luckily Apple released OS X 10.10.2 so I plugged in the ethernet and installed it which has fixed my WIFI... for now, I'm to scared to restart my Mac. Does Anyone know what is going on? Thank you
    Like I said when it gives the error (No WIFI Hardware installed) the wifi connects in recovery just not on my Mac OS. I'm currently using my Mac to submit this question and all seems fine so far.
    Thanks again.

    Try these in order testing your system after each to see if it's back to normal:
    1. a. Resetting your Mac's PRAM and NVRAM
        b. Intel-based Macs: Resetting the System Management Controller (SMC)
    2. Restart the computer in Safe Mode, then restart again, normally. If this doesn't help, then:
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the Utilities menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    3. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list.  In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive.  If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
    4. Reinstall Yosemite: Reboot from the Recovery HD. Select Reinstall OS X from the Utilities menu, and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible
                because it is three times faster than wireless.
    5. Reinstall Yosemite from Scratch:
    Be sure you backup your files to an external drive or second internal drive because the following procedure will remove everything from the hard drive.
    How to Clean Install OS X Yosemite
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible

  • MacBook Pro (Early 2011) Freeze - How to collect system logs?

    Hello,
    My MacBook Pro (Early 2011) keep freezes at all times and hard reboot is only the available solution at. I'm having this problem from day one and spoke to AppleCare couple of times, but unable to resolve! Is there anyway to collect system logs from MacBook Pro running OS X Lion 10.7.2 to show it to Genius people at local Store?
    Any help would be greatly appreciated! Thanks!

    How to run hardware diagnostics for an Intel Mac
    Boot from your original OS X Installer Disc One that came with your computer.  After the chime press and hold down the "D" key until the diagnostic screen appears.  Run the extended tests for a minimum of two or three hours.  If any error messages appear note them down as you will need to report them to the service tech when you take the computer in for repair.
    Some "common" error indicators:
    SNS - sensor error
    MEM - memory error
    HDD - hard disk drive error
    MOT - fan error

  • Boot usb macbook pro early 2011

    Hello guys
    i'm trying to install windows (i have a legit license key) on my macbook pro early 2011 (i5 @ 2.3ghz, 4GB DDR3 1333MHZ) through usb because my superdrive is dead and i don't have dvds to burn. i modified the info.plist to make the bootcamp assistant capable to make a bootable usb key of my iso (it's just adding my references to the plist so it recognize it as a macbook without superdrive, no big deal). but when i rebooted my laptop, it says no bootable disk please insert and hit enter. so i did, but it did anything. at the boot menu (cmd or alt button when booting) it shows only the macintosh hd (lion partition) and the recovery hd (lion installer) but the bootcamp partition was made properly in fat32 and so on... i tried to boot on the key but no way it wont.
    my question is : is there ANY way to boot from that f*****n usb key? i saw that rEFIt can make it but i don't trust in that software (have no warrenty if a screw something i'm the screwed one loooool)

    Can't be done, sorry. You'll need to repair or replace your SuperDrive.

  • EXACTLY what cable(s) do I need to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution?

    I am trying to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011 w/ Intel HD 3000/ 384Mb) to an external display with a 2560x1440 resolution. Specifically, what cable/connections do I need to display at this resolution? I cannot get the display to work using a "Thunderbolt to HDMI" or a "Thunderbolt to DVI" connector.  Note:  I used both older and newer (uni-directional) HDMI cables on the first config, and a Dual-link DVI cable on the second config.   Apple specs state this is possible ( support.apple.com/kb/SP619 ), but I am at a loss as to how this can be done.  Thanks in advance for the help!

    You use a Mini DisplayPort to either HDMI or dual-link DVI adapter. If that component doesn't work, something's wrong with either the cable or something else in the connection.

  • 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011) doesn't detect display over mini DisplayPort HDMI adapter in Mountain Lion 10.8.2

    Hi to all.
    I have a problem connecting external display (Dell U2311H) to my 13" MacBook Pro (Early 2011).
    I use Tecklink Mini DasplayPort to HDMI adapter (http://www.techlink.uk.com/products/wires_cables/wiresmedia/wiresmedia_media/wir esmedia_mini_displayport_plug_to_hdmi_plug), but since U2311H doesn't have HDMI input, I also use Manhattan DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter (http://www.manhattan-products.com/en-US/products/8101-displayport-adapter).
    And nothing.
    The display is not detected, no picture or even external monitor presence at all.
    I even reset PRAM, and installed 10.8.2 Supplementary update.
    I also plugged and unplugged all I could, with no luck.
    As I can see on Apple discussion, it is a common problem with 2011 MacBook Pro's.
    It seems like the problem is in Thundebolt port, it somehow does not work properly.
    If anyone has solved such ploblem, please let me know.

    In reply to my own post have to say appologies to Apple whose Thunderbold port I used to blame.
    Shame on me)
    So, what was my problem?
    Guess what?
    Manhattan DisplayPort to HDMI Adapter !
    The point is it's actually do only what it said to do, converts DP to HDMI.
    But I for some reason thought it can be used vice versa, to be HDMI to DP converter))
    I was wrong.
    I bought new one HDMI to DVI adapter and now I HAVE external display!
    Thunderbolt works like a charm.
    So I'm very satisfied now.

  • MacBook Pro Early 2011 - Airplay Mirroring only sends audio to Apple TV 2nd Gen

    Ok, I'm stumped by this one. I have a 15" MBP Early 2011 edition and an Apple TV 2nd Gen. Airplay Mirroring from my MBP to Apple TV only transmits the audio -- the MBP will resize the screen like it's connected to a 16:9 device, and Apple TV will show a black screen like it's about to pick up the video signal, but no video transmits. A couple of times, video started transmitting, but it was about 30 seconds delayed (?!) and extremely choppy. Both devices are connected wirelessly to a Linksys router with 5 GHz (wireless N) capabilities. The router has been configured to Apple's recommendations for Airplay Mirroring.
    A little more about my MacBook Pro:
    Early 2011 Model ID: MacBookPro8,2
    OS: 10.8.2 Mountain Lion
    CPU: Intel Core i7
      Processor Speed:          2 GHz
      Number of Processors:          1
      Total Number of Cores:          4
      L2 Cache (per Core):          256 KB
      L3 Cache:          6 MB
    Memory: 4 GB
    GPU: AMD Radeon HD 6490M, VRAM 256 MB Total
    This problem is driving me crazy! Airplay works flawlessly between my iPhone 5 and Apple TV, but not with a much more powerful laptop. Also, I tried Mirroring from a friend's 13" MacBook Pro, and it did the same thing.
    Any suggestions, tips, ideas, etc. to get this working is appreciated!

    Rudegar wrote:
    your macbook dont support airplay mirror
    He has an Early-2011 MacBook Pro, which does meet the requirements. The issue is that it is running OS X 10.7.5 and needs to be upgraded to Mountain Lion to use mirroring.

  • Connecting my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) and listening to Multichannel surround sound.

    Dear all,
    I am attempting to connect my MacBook Pro (early 2011) to my Sony LCD TV (KDL-46XBR6) via the Mini DisplayPort to HDMI. I have successfully connected the two devices and can select "SONY TV XV" in the sound preference pane. I can see and hear what I'd like, however, I can only monitor the sound in 2 channel stereo. I have my TV connected to a Sony 7.1 audio receiver via an optical cable and can monitor 7.1 sound via other sources (Blu-ray, broadcast, etc). When I go into the Audio Midi Setup utility, I am unable to configure my speakers to be anything but 2 channel stereo. I am given the options for "2ch-16bit", "2ch-20bit", "2ch-24bit" and "Encoded Digital Audio". When I select "Encoded Digital Audio", my output automatically changes to Built-in Output. Has anyone been able to successfully resolve this issue? Thanks for all your help!

    You should also ask this in the MacBook Pro forum. This is the forum for the 13” white and black plastic MacBooks that were discontinued in 2010. You should also post this question there to increase your chances of getting an answer.
